Today, Afero technology powers more than 20 million devices across 200+ products from 50+ manufacturers. Afero has more than 130 patents, one of the largest IoT patent portfolios globally, and was named a 2024 IoT Breakthrough Winner for IoT Security Platform of the Year. Afero is driven by a team of world-class executives and veterans in mobile, hardware, security, consumer and cloud, leveraging experience from Google, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Netflix, Disney, Roku and Danger.Microcontrollers, the low-cost, low-power chips inside plugs, bulbs, locks, sensors, thermostats, and meters, ship at a rate of more than 4 billion a year, more than phones, laptops, and servers combined. Yet they lack a common software layer for identity, connectivity, provisioning, updates, fleet management, and enterprise-grade security. Afero delivers that layer: a unified platform, tested at scale in The Home Depot's Hubspace smart home ecosystem, for devices that cannot run a general-purpose operating system like Linux or Android. These devices form the far edge, connecting the physical and digital worlds so modern AI can meet people where they are.To learn more, please visit Responsibilities Okta administration (user lifecycle, group and app assignments, SSO/SCIM integrations)Google Workspace administrationMac fleet management with Jamf Pro and Apple Business Manager, including OS and patch complianceSaaS administration, including Atlassian (Jira and Confluence), GitHub, and SlackOnboarding and offboardingIT support and incident responseSupport for periodic access reviewsHardware procurement, provisioning, asset inventory, and lifecycleOffice technology: conference room AV, printers, physical access controlDocumentation and runbooksVendor and license managementRequired Qualification 4+ years of IT experience, including hands-on administration of Okta, Jamf Pro, and Google WorkspaceStrong macOS support and management skillsExperience working independently in a small or mid-size companyClear written communication with a team distributed across time zones, with occasional early-morning or evening availabilityNice to Have Windows, Intune, and Microsoft 365/Entra ID experienceOffice networking experienceScripting or API automation (Bash, Python, or similar)Okta Certified Administrator or Jamf certifications The US base salary range for this full-time position is expected to be $128,000 - $163,000.
